kkoel, thanks for your identification.

Apart from the above, one Spot-billed Duck was found at pond #20 yesterday.

And a mammal before entering visitor centre.

Eurasian Otter?

FANTASTIC picture of the Otter - one of the very few (maybe the first) not taken by a camera trap.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

Otter... brilliant....

Photographing one of these is as hard as photographing the Loch Ness Monster in Scotland !!!!

Very well done

Thanks for watching.

Yes, I agree that it is unbelievable! Never think of watching it in the wild especically in Hong Kong.
